I learned it of it in high…

Teaching me to Fish

For the last couple of days, someone who many of you know, alright, my friend Leah Hart, has been teaching me to write story blurbs. At first, I didn’t understand the term ‘blurb’ in the context of my books. Even that, she had to drill into me. It’s been a hard road for me and…

The Day After

The Day After As I deal with the day after hangover and fatigue from celebrating the holiday I can’t help but reflect upon all the good cheer I saw and experienced these last two days. Forget about the gifts people exchanged. They were all very nice and appreciated, not only by me but the members…
